Amazon Astro review: Living with Amazon’s home robot - The Verge

Amazon’s Astro household robot is designed for home monitoring and pairs with a Ring Alarm system. But it also wants to be your friend, and that’s more than a little weird.

Amazon’s household robot is exactly what I expected, but it’s not what I wanted and it definitely isn’t what anyone asked for. Instead of a multitasking mimicry of me that can empty the dishwasher, pick up my kids’ shoes, feed the dog, and clean the house, Amazon’s first attempt at a home bot is simply a souped-up Echo Show on wheels.
